New legal immigrants accept the “highest responsibility” as they join the American family, President Donald Trump says in a short video for use in naturalization ceremonies. Trump’s message and tone are far different from those of President Barack Obama, who told migrants that citizenship is for their convenience: “It’s about adding a new chapter to your journey as an American citizen and to our journey as a nation of immigrants,” Obama told would-be migrants in 2015. In his welcome message to the new migrants, Trump says: My fellow Americans, how exciting this is. Congratulations.  Today, you receive one of the most…

House Republicans are moving to rename the opera house in the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts after first lady Melania Trump. House appropriators voted 33-25 on Tuesday to advance language introduced by Rep. Mike Simpson (R-Idaho) that would make most of the Kennedy Center’s funding contingent on the name change in their markup of the fiscal 2026 Interior-Environment spending bill. The move is just the latest effort by Republicans in Washington to reshape the public face of the Kennedy Center with President Donald Trump back in the White House. The president in February took over as chair…

The Berlin-London ‘deal’ is a farce, but one that aligns with regions’s decline By Timofey Bordachev, Program Director of the Valdai ClubOnly a complete imbecile would trust the British as allies. History offers no example of London taking serious risks for the sake of partnership. On the contrary, Britain’s favorite geopolitical sport has long been to encourage continental states to exhaust themselves in battles with stronger adversaries – only for the UK to later emerge as the diplomatic victor. Throwing allies under the bus is tradition, not exception.Which is why it’s safe to assume that the German government is fully…

Hey, remember that gay talk show host who turned out to be an overbearing bully and jerk, and was subsequently cancelled? (No, not Colbert. He’s straight. I think.) Well, if you’d so kindly tap your hippocampus and neocortex for useless trivia, you might remember former daytime talk show host Ellen DeGeneres. You probably don’t want to remember her, but in case you’ve forgotten, she’s one of those celebrities who has lots of dumb, unfounded thoughts — and threats — regarding President Donald Trump, especially during last year’s presidential campaign. We all know how that ended, and — believe it or…

LONDON (AP) – A British man who dreamed of being like James Bond was convicted on Tuesday of attempting to spy for Russia. Howard Phillips, 65, sought to pass information about former Defense Secretary Grant Shapps to two men he believed were Russian agents.

General Motors (GM) has experienced a dive in profits, the news coming as its leadership continues touting electric vehicles (EV). According to the Daily Mail, General Motors “reported $1.89 billion in net income for the second quarter, a sharp $1.1 billion decline from $2.93 billion during the same period last year. That’s a 35 percent drop from the previous quarter alone,” the outlet said on Tuesday, noting it happened amid “regulatory upheaval” and “tariff pressure.” GM has been trying to win over President Donald Trump’s administration even though some of the company’s initiatives that include trying to keep EV mandates and…

Hunter Biden, the troubled son of former President Joe Biden, gave a big, fat “fuck you” to those who are upset about illegal immigration in the country, asking how people expect their hotel rooms to be cleaned. Hunter Biden ranted about those who are upset over illegal immigration during a lengthy sit-down interview on “Channel 5 with Andrew Callaghan.” “And what we’re going to do is we’re going to send masked men to this marginalized group, and we are going to take them, put them on planes, put them on busses, put them on trains, and send them to a…

Collaborators with France’s AFP news agency are said to “no longer have the physical capacity” to do their jobs The last remaining Palestinian collaborators for Agence France-Presse (AFP) in Gaza are starving, unable to continue working or survive under current conditions, the agency’s internal journalists’ association has warned.AFP has been relying on ten local freelancers since its staff withdrew from the enclave in early 2024, the Society of Journalists (SDJ) said in a statement on Monday.“They are young, but their strength is fading. Most no longer have the physical capacity to move through the enclave to do their job,” the…

NPR’s Editor-in-Chief Edith Chapin announced she will leave her post by the Fall after the passage of the $9 billion rescissions package. House Republicans passed a sweeping $9 billion rescissions package last Thursday that delivers a knockout punch to globalist pet projects and leftist propaganda machines like NPR and PBS. The vote was 216–213, with only two Republicans—Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick and Mike Turner—breaking ranks to side with Democrats in opposition. Edith Chapin said she made the decision on her own to step down and that it had nothing to do with the rescissions package. NPR reported: NPR’s editor in chief…

A new study has revealed that at least 759 American hospitals experienced network disruptions during the CrowdStrike software crash one year ago, with more than 200 facing outages directly impacting patient care.
